Jira cli wrapper

This wrapper provides a git-like experience for using jira from the command line.

Example

Create a new jira

jira create -m 'this is a new new ticket description' 'summary of ticket'

Comment on a jira

jira comment -m 'this is a short comment' JIRA-123

Log time against a jira

jira time JIRA-123 15m

Move a jira to a transition state

jira move close JIRA-123

Password Requirements

You must setup your jira password: Even if you normally log in to JIRA using google authentication, you will need to have a basic Atlassian ondemand password set up. This is separate from your google credential and does not impact it. https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Changing+Your+Password+in+Atlassian+OnDemand

 transitions:
  close:
    final_state: 6      # Id of the final state we want to get to
    intrim_state:
      - 2
